‘Can’t stop crying’ Deborah James ‘can’t comprehend’ she won’t see her son become a father | Celebrity News | Showbiz & TV
After sharing her heartbreaking diagnosis, Deborah was honoured with a damehood after raising an incredible £4million for charity in just a few days.
The Queen’s honours are usually announced as part of the New Year Honours or the Queen’s Birthday Honours, but they are occasionally given at other times in exceptional circumstances.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson said in a statement: “If ever an honour was richly deserved, this is it.
“Deborah has been an inspiration and her honesty, warmth and courage has been a source of strength to so many people.
“Through her tireless campaigning and by so openly sharing her experience she has not only helped in our fight against this terrible disease, she has ensured countless others with the Big C have not felt alone.”
